I Heard That Song Before by Mary Higgins Clark (2007, Hardcover)

I read this book because my wife brought it home and left it sitting on my desk so I assumed it was some sort of gift. I found out later that the phone rang as she walked by my desk and she forgot to pick it back up.

This was the first MHC book that I have read and I wasn't sure what to expect. I know she is a top tier suspense writer and there were a lot of ups and downs that went on as I read and there were plenty of things along the lines of dead bodies and frantic suspense. I also liked that there were several different possible answers to whom the "bad guy" might be, but beware, if you read a lot of suspense novels you'll probably figure this one out rather quickly.

There was a little too much romance type stuff going on in it to really suit me and the main character was one of those that if it were a movie you'd be screaming at her and calling her an idiot. I also thought the book could have ended about 100 pages sooner and no valuable information would have been lost.

All in all, it was worth reading and my wife swears that this is one of MHC's best books yet.
